Now user are able to:

• Configuration of document size for copying in D&M

 

• Bulk copying of documents and folders

 

• Currently the copy action for documents and folders is able to be performed in Portal without fully respecting the site-asset library relationship. The expected behavior is:

  • An asset library must be connected to a site in order to copy a document over to the site

  • A document cannot be copied from a site to an asset library (only the other way around)

  We can enforce a stricter check when performing the copy action between asset libraries and sites. Instead of the end user receiving a success message when copying a document to a disconnected site, an error message should appear telling the user to set the connection first.

• Document Types contained in a document are being copied in Documents and Media so that they can be easily reused.

 

• Categories and Tags in Documents and Media are being automatically copied so they can be easily reused on a new site.

With this development, the publication of Knowledge Base articles will be schedulable, in particular, the feature is so designed:

• The primary Publish button will have an arrow down with the “Publish” option, that will immediately publish the article, and the “Schedule” one.

 

• Clicking the Schedule option, will make a modal appear so the user can set a date and time for the article to be published.

 

• The Scheduled article will have the SCHEDULED status that will change to APPROVED on the scheduled date

• A tooltip with the scheduled date information will appear when hovering the question-circle-full icon placed next to the SCHEDULED state.

 

• Editing a scheduled article will provide the user the ability, by clicking the primary button that has turned into “Scheduled”, to:

  • Cancel the operation

  • Publish Now

  • Schedule: this option will save the article, date & time changes and the user will return to the previous screen before entering edit mode

 

• Additional feature: A Knowledge Base article deletion action will move it to the Recycle Bin so that it can be restored.

This feature allows you to leverage the functions of Liferay’s caching framework. Our current measurements indicate about 10%/30% performance increase in database writing operations, also 10 times faster reading performance!

The user experience of the Management Toolbar present in multiple applications (Web Content, Blogs, Documents & Media) has been improved:

• Separate sections for filter and order.
• Changed “+” with “New” for clarity.
• Moved info icon to the right.
